While I did pose them for the purpose of this picture, they often do sit here and play chess…

Is that room a library? it looks so cozy.
Well, not really. One long bookshelf with books and games. But it is cozy..:-)
Your picture was outside in, and I did justthe opposite~inside out. It is interesting seeing the different perspectives.
It is. I liked the view through the window with the tulips…
Ooooh, I love bookshelves
. This is a wonderful shot – what a great idea!!
I do too, and I wish I had more of them. If I had my way, there would be at least two more walls covered in books…
I like the way you think
. My hubby built me 40 feet of bookshelves down one side of my basement, and they are almost full!!
I want to put a bookcase under the stairs, but the wall curves. I think a clever carpenter could make it work… You are lucky to have a handy husband. Mine is very handy with woodworking as well, but as we’ve aged, he’s gotten a little more tired.
Lack of time and money always seem to be big factors too
. One day WHEN I win the lottery, I will have a house with a library in it, complete with ladder that rolls along the walls. Ahhh, heaven!
Wouldn’t it be though?
Beautiful shot…it says “family” to me!
Thanks! It amazes me still how often they will go in there and play chess.
Warm feeling. I imagine hot chocolate.
Sometimes I sit in those chairs in the winter with hot cocoa and read! The room is painted deep red, so it is very warm!
Love this!
Thanks!
Great photo, Arnel. Put a few twinkle lights and scatter a bit of snow and with that shot of red and the cozy feel … it could be a great Christmas shot.
Thanks Lynne! Hadn’t thought of that–thanks for the idea!
Totally agree… reminds me of Christmas specials on the telly.
Thank you! I should repeat on a snowy day, I’m thinking.
Sweet, sweet photo.
Thank you Robin!
Lives this photo. Can see them doing that. Can I get a print, have frame 5×7
Not sure 5×7 would look very good. Had to use a high ISO and enlarged its not so great. I print one and see though.
Gorgeous photo! Love the bookshelves!
Thanks Deniz! I love them too! I begged and begged for them. In the end it was a way to unpack boxes int he basement and make room for camping gear! Clearly men and women have different priorities, LOL. I’d like another one, just have to find a place to put it! I’ve had it two years now, and it’s made that room my favorite.
